Ok, so for the last month or so My aw4 has been having a hard time shifting into 2nd and 3rd gear. Some days it would slap right into them, other days it would feel like it would slip until it finally locked into gear. Well then I lost them completely So I finally got a check engine light saying the solenoid for second and third gear is bad, makes since. Took the trans apart and ohm tested them all, and the one for those gears has a high resistance, also makes since. Well I've got to pick up my new solenoid "$260" from the dealership today and I was wondering "if possible" if I should replace the o rings on the other solenoids just for good measure? I hate working on anything transmission, so I'd rather put it together once and not have to rip it apart again lol. Thoughts?

 

you can get all the solenoids on ebay cheaper than that

my OD solenoid went, i replaced them all

kept the old ones that were still good for my other xj in case it needs it

Don't replace just the o-rings. Replace the solenoids AND o-rings.


Since.

Sense.

Quotation marks.

 

Replaced the bad solenoid and just slapped the other 2 back into place. Everything works great now
